Welcome to an all-new, refreshed podcast called life-lately. Life Lately is a podcast where we talk about all things life. Life is made up of many things, and so is this podcast.

I am a multi-passionate and multifaceted person and I am a firm believer that we really all are.

Ep.108: Are you a victim of the wellness culture?

December 12, 2022 02:00 - 26 minutes - 18.1 MB

We are all very aware that the diet industry is up to no good, but what about the wellness culture? If you ask me, it's even sneakier than diet culture. It can really hook you. But I don't want you to become a victim.

Ep.107: Can you live a low tox life while being an Intuitive Eater?

December 06, 2022 21:00 - 18 minutes - 13 MB

This may sound like the same topic from a previous episode but I want to attack this from a different angle, more of a food angle, more of an intuitive angle if you will. This is a huge question in the lives of many these days. Can you live intuitively while still eating low-tox? Can you eat low tox while eating intuitively? Is low-tox eating a diet? It is anti-diet, is there such a thing as a gentle dieting period? Let's talk about it all.  Let's connect: theorganicbuzz.com instagram.co...

Let's talk about it, let's talk about how to navigate figuring how what is right for you in all of this. instagram.com/theorganicbuzz theorgani...

November 14, 2022 01:00 - 39 minutes - 27.1 MB

How does a certified intuitive eating counselor navigate living low tox you may ask? Well with principal number 10 of course! However, there are so many red flags, and things to watch out for and keep in mind when living low tox and not wanting to fall back into old or similar patterns or behaviors. It can be so tricky and just as overwhelming to navigate the world of wellness and living more organically but it doesn't have to be. Let's dive in.
